This is a glimpse into the life of the classic British elite. So many houses, so much travel, so many muddy boots and fuzzy jumpers, so many deer culled. This fascinating society revels in the eat or be eaten life as much as it does in the quality of silks. If you watched The Crown on Netflix, this book is the real life example of the Bloodlust episode where the family jovially enjoys dinner amidst the clear relics of England's violent history.
